[Pan-users] Corrupt header ?

[Pascal H.]

Hello,

First i apologize for my bad english.

I'm using Pan 0.14.2 on a "linux from scratch" system. I compiled and 
installed Pan from source tarball.
I have error messages on several newsgroups. On the mailing list archive 
i found a message with same problem as mine :
<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/pan-users/2003-12/msg00036.html>

I tried last beta version (0.14.2.91) but the problem is still here.

I tried to use an other news server by an other FAI but the problem 
didn't disappear. Renaming ~/.pan directory didn't solve it.

For example this problem exist with the newsgroup
fr.comp.os.linux.configuration

I tried to trace the problem, and i deleted first all articles in cache, 
then i dowloaded the 50 most recent articles, saved the cache file, 
select then an other group and finaly re-select the first group and then 
i have this errors messages :


(Null) - file article.c: line 1095 (article_is_valid): assertion 
`a->references.len==0 || *a->references.str =='<'' failed

(Null) - file article.c: line 1092 (article_is_valid): assertion 
`*a->message_id.str =='<'' failed

****note : this second error message was repetead 33 times

(Null) - file article.c: line 1089 (article_is_valid): assertion 
`pstring_is_set (&a->subject)' failed

****note : this third error message was repetead 3 times

I saved the updated cache file after these errors.

The tested newsgroup is fr.comp.os.linux.configuration
The cache files (before and after the errors) are online here:

<http://www.zyzomys.com/fcolc.before>
and
<http://www.zyzomys.com/fcolc.after>

I didn't see anything wrong in the headers from the cache file "before" 
but i'm not familiar with news headers.

Pan is compiled with gcc 3.2.1, but i tried to compile it with 
gcc-2.95.3 and there are no changes to this problem.

Can someone help me to solve this problem, or is it a bug ?
